So @kfile and I wrote a story on Marjorie Taylor Greene's most dangerous conspiracy theories and comments.
There's some new reporting in here as well, plus reporting from the likes of Media Matters, NBC News & Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
Buckle up. https://www.cnn.com/2021/02/04/politics/kfile-marjorie-taylor-greene-history-of-conspiracies/index.html

Greene repeatedly indicated support for political violence and execution of top Democrats & FBI agents.
We found a new tweet in which she hoped Nancy Pelosi would lose her memory sitting in prison for treason/liked a tweet calling for her death. https://www.cnn.com/2021/01/26/politics/marjorie-taylor-greene-democrats-violence/index.html

We also reported on a "press release" she wrote to impeach and execute Nancy Pelosi. As well as this blog post. (On Facebook, the headline misleadingly read "Police Are Seeking the Removal of Nancy Pelosi") https://web.archive.org/web/20190124024740/https:/www.thewhiskeypatriots.com/americans-are-seeking-the-removal-of-nancy-pelosi/
We also mention this story reported by @VeronicaStrac from September.
Remember Greene shared an image of herself holding a gun alongside images of AOC, Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib. The caption encouraged going on the "offense against these socialists" https://www.cnn.com/2020/09/04/politics/marjorie-taylor-greene-gun-post-squad/index.html

Let's get into the violent conspiracy theories she peddled.
The most disturbing is the "Frazzledrip" conspiracy that @ehananoki reported last week. I've attached a picture describing it--it's pretty graphic.

Other violent conspiracies she's engaged with include:
- "Pizzagate" conspiracy
- The cruel Seth Rich conspiracy
- Clinton Body Count conspiracy h/t @BrandyZadrozny
- 9/11 trutherism and and falsely claimed there was no evidence a plane crashed into the Pentagon h/t @ehananoki

In her floor speech today, Greene had this to say, "9/11 absolutely happened...And it's a tragedy for anyone to say it didn't happen. So that I definitely want to tell you all, I do not believe it's fake." https://therecount.com/watch/rep-greene-who-has-long/2645866541
While Greene peddled violent conspiracy theories online, she often speculated if real-world violent events were part of a deeper conspiracy and were actually false flag operations. https://www.cnn.com/2021/02/04/politics/kfile-marjorie-taylor-greene-history-of-conspiracies/index.html
